7 romantic locations around the UK

A survey conducted earlier this year revealed the UK’s most romantic locations, here’s a round up for some homegrown romance

The Welsh Coastline

This year Wales can claim a world first as the only country to
have a path around its entire coast. The 870-mile Wales Coast Path runs from
Queensferry in the North Wales Borderlands to Chepstow in the far
south-east. If you're looking for somewhere to stroll hand-in-hand,
try the North Wales Path. To get your hearts pounding on a serious
honeymoon hike, the Pembrokeshire Coast Path changes from rugged,
wave-lashed coast in the north to sandy beaches and sheltered coves
of the south.

Stonehenge

Britain's best-known ancient monument is still one of our most
mysterious attractions. The true meaning of this ancient,
awe-inspiring creation has been lost in the mists of time. Arrange
in advance to go inside the stone circle at dawn or sunset. English
Heritage take care of the monument; visit their website for more
details.

The Cotswolds

Covering six counties (Worcestershire, Gloucestershire,
Wiltshire, Oxfordshire, Warwickshire and Bath & North East
Somerset), the Cotswolds are often
thought of as the quintessential English countryside. It would be
easy to zoom through the region, but it's worth getting off the
main roads to explore the rolling hills, fairytale woods and sleepy
villages. Head to Broadway Tower to take in the
view.

Windermere

Windermere, England's largest natural lake, is a stunner - and
it's just the start of the Lake District's many
attractions. It's the ultimate destination for walkers and
adventure enthusiasts alike, with places to walk, hike, bike and
swim but that's not all. You'll also find boutique hotels, quirky
museums, Michelin-starred restaurants, music festivals and
photography courses to help you capture the newly-wed magic.

Snowdon

Keep your relationship on a high climbing to the highest peak in
England and Wales, Snowdon. There are a variety of routes up the
mountain, but you can take the train to the top if
you don't want to walk. Snowdonia National Park has
more than just mountains; there are long sandy beaches and crystal
clear lakes and rivers to explore together too.

Arthur's Seat, Edinburgh

For a 360 degree view of the Scottish capital, trek to the top of Arthur's Seat for what
locals say are the best views of the city. Paths up this ancient,
extinct volcano can get busy mid-day, so time your trek for the
morning or late afternoon to appreciate those top-notch views.

The top of Primrose Hill

There are hundreds of places in London that rate highly on the
richter scale of romance, and the view from Primrose Hill is right
up there. The hill, on the north side of Regent's Park overlooks the
city of London as far as the BT Tower and the London Eye;
particularly romantic at sunset.
